In his speech at the UN Future Summit, Prime Minister Mohammad Mustafa affirmed his commitment to enhancing the performance of Palestinian institutions, ensuring effective governance, and providing the best services to our people, who have been suffering from occupation and oppression for many years.

Mustafa said at the summit held on the sidelines of the 79th session of the United Nations General Assembly that our people in Gaza are suffering from one of the darkest chapters in modern history, as the Israeli genocidal war for nearly a year has caused unprecedented losses, suffering and a humanitarian catastrophe.

“At the same time, our people in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, continue to face systematic threats driven by escalating settler violence, military raids, restrictions on movement, and a financial blockade to withhold Palestinian tax revenues,” he added.

Mustafa pointed out that while we strive to play a positive role in responding to global challenges, we unfortunately suffer from the Israeli occupation and its aggressions in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, including East Jerusalem.
